For housing near James Madison University, does every employment-linked apartment have the same Virginia residential protections?

§55.1-1201(C)(6); no specific JMU employee housing arrangement is established. Source as of: 2026-10-16 Use cited page body and explicit policy period.

No. The statute excludes occupancy by a landlord's employee in a multifamily unit when occupancy is conditioned on employment in and about the premises, as well as a former such employee staying fewer than 60 days. That narrow exception does not mean an ordinary private apartment rented by any JMU employee is excluded.
